The normal number of times varies according to the age of the person. Among young children, urinating 8 to 14 times each day is typical. This decreases to 6–12 times per day for older children, and to 4–6 times per day among teenagers. [4]
What’s healthy versus excessive urination. Some people may pee up to 10 times per day, especially if they’re drinking a lot of water or other beverages that cause more frequent urination ...
The total solids in urine are on average 59 g (2.1 oz) per day per person. [8] Urea is the largest constituent of the solids, constituting more than 50% of the total. The daily volume and composition of urine varies per person based on the amount of physical exertion, environmental conditions, as well as water, salt, and protein intakes. [6]
A post-void residual urine greater than 50 ml is a significant amount of urine and increases the potential for recurring urinary tract infections. [citation needed] In adults older than 60 years, 50-100 ml of residual urine may remain after each voiding because of the decreased contractility of the detrusor muscle. [7]
A lactating cow produces about 322g of methane per day, [27] i.e. more than 117 kg per year through burping and exhalation, making commercially farmed cows a major (37%) [28] contributor to anthropogenic methane emissions, and hence to the greenhouse effect. 95% of this gas (wind) is emitted through burping. [29]
The amount of urine passed during each urination is relatively small. [1] Pain while urinating suggests that there is a problem other than overactive bladder. [1] Specific treatment is not always required. [1] If treatment is desired pelvic floor exercises, bladder training, and other behavioral methods are initially recommended. [3]
Frequent urination can be due to excessive urine production, small bladder capacity, irritability or incomplete emptying. Males with an enlarged prostate urinate more frequently. One definition of an overactive bladder is when a person urinates more than eight times per day. [28] An overactive bladder can often cause urinary incontinence.
After a decade of near-zero growth in methane levels, "globally averaged atmospheric methane increased by [approximately] 7 nmol/mol per year during 2007 and 2008. During the first half of 2009, globally averaged atmospheric CH 4 was [approximately] 7 nmol/mol greater than it was in 2008, suggesting that the increase will continue in 2009."
